Episode3 : Legends of a Different Sort
Episode description
This week Glenn introduces you to Bruce Ford, SVP Business Development with Lodging Econometrics (http://www.lodgingeconometrics.com/). This guy knows everything about every hotel project being built, planned or renovated in the universe. But he's also a good friend to Glenn and serves as the perfect foil. You will love the banter while you learn about what is happening with the creation and development of new hotels.
Then Glenn has a great conversation with Steve Belmonte, CEO with Vimana Franchise Systems(Vimanafs.com). This executive has seen some amazing happenings during his many decades in the hotel industry. We talk about what the business was like back in the 70s and 80s, hear stories from his days running Ramada Hotels and creating some legendary advertising featuring Saturday Night Live claymation alum Mr.Bill, and what he thinks of the current and future of this business.
